First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests whether a focused ultrasound device can safely open the blood-brain barrier in people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. About 30 participants will receive standard immunotherapy plus the ultrasound procedure. The goal is to see if this helps the drugs work better against brain tumors.
